his presidential powers without the congress. he put them in charge of the gun violence task force after the massacre in newtown. one month from today a mab killed 26 people including 20 first graders. the president called on lawmakers to examine their own conscience before voting on any new bills. oo if in fact everybody across lines were saddened as i was by what happened in newtown we are going to have to vote based on what we think is best. we have to come up with answers that set politics aside. >> leaders of the national rifle association says they have enough to block the assault weapons ban. he may take steps on his own. shannon green is live at the white house. what could the president do without the congress?

>> he can always issue executive orders and give guidance to federal agencies. he can tell them about ways he would like to see stricter enforcement of laws things that deal with background checks and those kinds of things. he said anybody who is suggesting a government gun grab is all wrong. >> those who oppose any common sense gun control or gun safety measures have a pretty effective way of beginning gwinning up fn the part of gun owners that somehow the federal government is about to take all of your guns away. the nra said they should talk to people buying firearms and ask them why they are buying firearms. september 2012 marked the heist number ever of background checks for gun purchases in the country's history up 50 percent from the december before.

>> we heard today from some of the parents of sandy hook. what are they saying? >> sandy hook promise. some say they themselves are gun owners they are comfortable talking about that but want to have a bigger responsibility about gun violence as a whole. they don't want their children's lives to be lost in veiain. they want to see change. >> here is jeremy richmond who lost his young daughter. >> we need to face and take action on hard issues. there is not going to be one simple solution. we feel it is essential to get a deep understanding of mental health in terms of research education and policy. >> we expect to get more details on the vice president's recommendations. he shared with the president earlier this week. lawmakers aren't waiting there are a number of proposals in the works including one that would give a tax credit to any one who would turn in what lawmakers are calling an assault weapon and

also another measure aimed at creating the overall bigger picture of mass violence. >> at the news conference the president accused republicans of trying to collect a ransom in exchange for not crashing the u.s. economy. they are demanding more spending cuts before they agree to raise the nation's debt ceiling. the debt ceiling is announcing the amount of money the states can borrow. today the president responded to some republicans who say they are willing to shut down the government if the president doesn't back down. ultimately congress makes decisions about whether or not we spend money and keep the government open. if they decide they want to shut down the government in order to get their way they have the votes in the house of representatives to do that. i think that would be a mistake. >> john boehner responded the american people do not support

raising the debt ceiling without reducing government spending statement. wendell, a government shut down, is that something that really might happen? neither side is ready to blink yet. he has laid out they are ready to compromise if possible that could lead to a government shut down although probably not right away. president obama suggested right before the u.s. the people at home might be told they have to wait for their money. >> if congressional republicans refuse to pay america's bills on time social security checks and veteran's benefits will be delayed. we may not be able to pay our military air traffic controllers specialist who track down lose nuclear materials wouldn't get their paychecks.

>> that's not default but credit agencies would likely downgrade america's rating that would raise the cost of borrowing money. ben bernanke says it's very, very important congress avoid this. >> republicans know it is not the first thing that would come from not paying all of our bills. from their view ever increasing debt is not an answer. house speaker john boehner says the consequences of failing to increase the debt ceiling are real but so, too, are the consequences of allowing our spending problem to go unresolved. utah republican congressman mike lee says not facing the spending problem could be the worse outcome. >> we are going to face another credit rating downgrade i fear if we raise it reflectively without changing the way washington spends money and more importantly the way washington borrows money. >> republicans feels they have

the leverage to raise r have spending cuts. >> we are living longer but we are work longer. we looked at the number of older americans who were still pulling in paychecks. the group found over the last two decades the number of workers who were 75 years old at least has gone up by nearly 77 percent. not all of them are doing it just because of money. people are finding a lot of reasons to work in their 70s and 80s. >> we are healthier than we used to be. a lot of people are working for that reason they are also working because they are worried about medical costs going forward. they want a little extra money even if they have enough saved for retirement. aarp says some employers belief older workers are better than youn they are holding on to people later. the number of people unemployed over 65, 55,000 compared to
